LOCKN' FESTIVAL FRIDAY, AUGUST 23

Greg Humphreys Electric Trio plays LOCKN' at Infinity Downs & Oak Ridge Farm, Arrington, VA in one week – we hit the main stage at 1 PM on Friday, August 23!

There is a special spirit of cross-pollination at this year's LOCKN', with sit-ins and jams scheduled throughout the four-day festival. Check out this schedule... the number of unique collaborations and up-and-coming acts on the bill is truly amazing.

There is an amazing roster of talent at this year's Be Loud, and the level of support from the community is inspiring. Can't wait to see everyone... Tickets and info here



HOOTIE @ MADISON SQUARE GARDEN

Scratch a big one off the bucket list; got to perform “Hold My Hand” with Hootie and the Blowfish at Madison Square Garden on August 11, the second night of their two-night stand there. Thanks to Darius Rucker, Mark Bryan, Jim Sonefeld, Dean Felber, Gary Greene, Garry Murray, Peter Holsapple, and the whole organization for your incredible generosity in getting your old friend up on stage for a huge thrill.

I’ve been seeing these guys since we started trading shows around the Carolinas in the early 90s; I can say without reservation that they deserve every success they’ve had and will continue to have. They’ve proven yourselves to be one of the classic American bands, with a stack of timeless songs and one of the best singers of our generation.

Above all, They’ve proven yourselves to be great people who show us what it means to come together, step up and deliver. We need more of that in the world these days. ♥️ Thanks to Alex Curran for capturing the moment!
